Tenyo 2023 - The Final Piece

An impossible & baffling revelation!
"The Final Piece" is offered as part of the 2023 line of Tenyo Magic tricks. It's Tenyo's take on a popular magic trick and mentalism effect that has been performed by top pros around the world. And it's surprisingly easy to perform.
The spectator randomly selects a jigsaw puzzle at random from a pile of pieces. You then remove a cloth to reveal there is a partially completed puzzle missing just one piece. Impossibly, the piece they chose fits perfectly.
"The Final Piece" is easy to perform and also makes for a great collectable for magicians that like to collect Tenyo Magic products.
This is a fantastic piece of magic and mystery. The method is solid and it gets fantastic reactions every time. The set up is extremely easy for a show with minimal fuss or difficulty in getting things ready. This works in a close-up or parlor environment. I would not use this for stage as the pieces of the puzzle are a bit small and the full puzzle is on the smaller size. The quality is good, but there are some small issues with the cutting of the pieces where there are little tabs. Not a big deal though and it has never ruined the trick.
Like so many Tenyo products, this is simple yet devious. However unlike a lot of Tenyo products, this is a trick that you can put straight into your working repertoire or just as a fun piece you can have sitting around at home to perform to guests casually. My only criticism is that there isn't a larger version of the puzzle available. Totally recommend for some strong mentalism that you WILL perform.
The puzzle comes in 4 pieces. I just taped the back and will frame it. I thought I would have to put the little pieces together. The size is approximately 7inch x 10inch. Good enough for close up or parlor. Things that are less desirable about it:the clear box it comes with is a piece of crap and it looks cheap. I threw it away. You can go to an office store or Container store and get a clear container that looks nicer. It doesn't come with that many pieces. So if your presentation is that you have another set of puzzle pieces in the box, it doesn't really look like there is enough. This isn't too big of a deal as you do get a few dozen pieces, but an astute spectator might notice the discrepancy. I read elsewhere people's review and I agree it would be nice to have double the amount of pieces you receive. I have a few friends who are considering buying 2 sets to use the extra pieces of puzzle. the biggest problem with this effect is to come up with a good presentation. I think it is always best to make puzzle to magic vs the other way around. This does feel like a puzzle, but I of course knew this before purchasing. And of course you won't be able to repeat it to the same audience so over all, $25 I'm satisfied. I would say it is ok. it is different, I would not pay more than $25 for it though.

Brandon asks: How big is the puzzle in inches ??
Matt asks: Can a different piece of the puzzle be the solution each time or is it always the same piece ?
Maxime asks: Does the piece necessary needs to be face down when picked? In the video, 80% of the pieces are face up, and only a few face down, it feels restricted if its the case.
